I enjoyed Donnie Darko, that is to say the extended cut that removes a lot of the ambiguity. The theatrical version to me feels like it's being obfuscating just for the sake of it.
I saw the directors cut about ten years ago, but it wasn't very good so I forgot about it 
I watched Deep Blue Sea. A film with dodgy sharks playing Die Hard in water. What is not to like?? You guys should do this film.
I used to like Deep Blue Sea quite a bit, but seeing it again a few months ago made me realize I personally don't think it holds up as well as I thought it did. I guess if you look at it as more of an expensive B-movie it works better. Still I think it's kind of empty in a way. Familiar story beats but not enough personality. I think Deep Rising is a better example of that kind of film, it's more playful and I think it suits it better.
Deep Blue Sea has Tom Jane though which it definitely has going for it.
Not sure I've ever seen all of Brain Donors, but I know I've seen some of it.
Is there a sight gag where one of the characters crosses his fingers and they're all twisted up in an impossible way?
My roommate and I have been watching all the NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET movies. We wanted to do it during October but between life and the Potterthon we've only now managed to get through FREDDY'S DEAD.
As much as I adore a good horror film, I don't think I understand the popularity of horror franchises. I've seen all of the HELLRAISER films, all but one of the SAW films, and now am up to this point with Freddy. Almost all of them start with a promising premise then quickly devolve into nonsense, contradicting their internal mythology multiple times in order to justify continuing the franchise.

The original 6 Star Trek movies?

There is definitely a strange irony to it. Horror typically works best at it's most restrained, but sequels almost by definition need to up the ante, which is almost always less effective.
On the flip-side, horror sequels are cheap to make and bring a reliable return on investment, which is why that genre in particular tends to get sequelized more than others, despite being one of the least suitable for sequels.
I've been putting off watching Barry Lyndon. I think it's time I finally watch it.
I love a good slow, methodical movie. Being a Kubrick film, I'd be surprised if it wasn't.
